A woman cannot live without lip gloss, mascara and oil blotting sheets. A man cannot live without his cellphone (or any business gadget), hair gel and wallet. But both of them cannot live without the net. Or the internets, as they fondly call it. The internet has become such a commodity and necessity for all of us that if there are network problems (internet not working, speedtest showing very slow connection), we rant, we pull our hair out, we sob as if the world has stopped turning.
